BXBX NOVEL Chapter 5249 The Holy Water Pearl
A moment later, Kappa reacted as well, pulling his hand back and taking a few steps back. He looked at Lin Yi and stuttered,"You ... You should leave quickly. I don't have any more water droplets in my hands, not a single one ..."
"Really?" Lin Yi didn't believe him,"if it's only one every hundred years, and no one's been here for at least a thousand years, how could there be only one?" Even if there aren't ten or twenty pills, there should be at least eight or ten, right?"
This primordial Land of Trials only opened once every thousand years, which meant that the last time human cultivators had set foot here was at least a thousand years ago. Not to mention, this place was so remote and strange that ordinary people would not be able to discover it at all. It might have been thousands of years since anyone had come.
"Eight or ten? Are you crazy?" Kappa was about to go berserk again, but he didn't dare to be too reckless under Lin Yi's pressure. He explained patiently,"A whole River could only produce one water bead in 100 years under the protection of our Kappa tribe. After that, it needs constant nourishment to completely form, not to mention that we have to spend more energy to nourish the Holy water bead ..."
"Holy water pearl?" Lin Yi's eyes lit up.
"Uh ..." Kappa suddenly realized that he had said something he shouldn't have, so he quickly changed his words,""What holy water bead? I'm just talking about the water bead. In short, there's only one water bead. Even if you beat me to death, I won't have a second one."
"Is that so?" Lin Yi said with a half-smile.
Kappa could not help but feel a little guilty. He thought for a while and said,""I'll just return that human to you ..."
"That human? Oh, you're talking about health maintenance. " Lin Yi blushed with shame. He almost forgot about this. After all, they weren't on the same side, and he didn't really care about the health cost. Fortunately, the Kappa wasn't a ferocious spirit beast, or it would've been eaten up already.
Not long after, health-maintenance Fei was dragged up by the Kappa like a dead dog. He didn't seem to have suffered any serious injuries, just a temporary loss of consciousness. He was still spitting bubbles from his mouth ...
"Go, hurry up and go, or I guarantee you'll die Here, definitely!" The Kappa was almost begging. Of course, it didn't care about Lin Yi's life or death, but the problem was that if its master found out that a human practitioner had barged in, it would be punished as well, and might even have to die with Lin Yi.
"How about this, I won't make things difficult for you. Just answer a few questions, and I'll leave once I'm done." Lin Yi said.
Kappa hesitated for a moment, but he knew that he couldn't drag this on any longer. He couldn't beat Lin Yi, so he had to say,"Alright, you said it yourself. You can't go back on your word."
"Good, how many Kappas are there here?" Lin Yi asked, but it wasn't something he really cared about. He was just curious.
"I'm the only one. " Kappa answered directly.
"You're the only one in your Kappa clan?" Lin Yi blinked. He thought that since they were from the same race, there should be many of them like the goumang race. There should be a Kappa King too. He didn't think that there would only be one.
"Originally, there were many, but a great incident occurred a hundred years ago. Everyone was killed by master, leaving only me in charge of the hundred herb garden." Kappa said with a bit of sadness.
"Then what kind of existence is your master? Don't you hate him?" Lin Yi asked casually. According to what the man said, this was a family Feud, and they shouldn't be able to live under the same sky. Why would he continue to work for that master?
Kappa was silent for a moment, and then said,""I can't tell you."
"Alright, I'll ask something else." Lin Yi didn't insist. "What's so special about this River? Is it the legendary spirit Sense River?"
"A river of consciousness? How could this be a river of consciousness?" Kappa looked at Lin Yi as if he was an idiot. He curled his lips,"The spirit Sense River is the biggest River, it's more than a thousand feet wide, how wide is my River? There was nothing special about this River, but it was only because of the protection of our Kappa race that it became different. "
Lin Yi wasn't surprised by the answer. He didn't think that this was a river of consciousness, so he continued,"One last question. Tell me about the Holy water pearl."
"Well ..." Kappa fell into hesitation. He hated himself for letting this thing slip out of his mouth. According to this human's unforgiving behavior, he would not leave until he figured out the truth.
In the end, Kappa could only force himself to explain,""The Holy water bead was originally the most sacred object of our Kappa tribe. It is said that it was the first generation of water beads that were nurtured. After countless years of nourishment from our ancestors, its effects have far exceeded the scope of ordinary water beads. It is also because of the Holy water bead that we were valued by master. However, a hundred years ago, when everyone was collectively nourishing the Holy water bead, an accident happened, and a crack appeared on the Holy water bead. Master killed everyone in a fit of anger ..."
"Oh, I see." Lin Yi understood now. The Kappa race was really pitiful-their Supreme relic was stolen, and the whole race had to be slaves. They were almost wiped out just because they had a problem with the relic. No one else had such a tragic fate.
"I've already said what I shouldn't have said. You should leave now, right?" Kappa looked at Lin Yi, afraid that Lin Yi would go back on his words.
"Alright, in that case, tell me how to leave." Lin Yi nodded immediately.
It would be a lie if he said he didn't have any thoughts about the Pearl, but that didn't mean he had to take it. After all, the master could control the Kappa so easily, so his strength must be extraordinary. It would be hard to take the Pearl from him, even if it was an unnecessary risk for Lin Yi.
